Dear Friends
I have moved my applications to PB2025 Solution (3683) and I had datawindows with a few nested datawindows for requirements of local electronic invoicing systems where the printed(PDF) format must included all xml created data.
The datawindow is not complex, looks like this in the design
This is the preview in PB12.6
The nested datawindows does not work on PB 2025, where I need to more nested data due to new requirements.
Both are using the same database and record
The DW was exported and imported in PB2025, also tried with regeneration, no results.
Nested datawindows does have "autosize hegith" and "slide directly above" in both versions of PB. Also tried with "all Above". A saw different issues if the nested dw has autosize height.
I moved them to the footer with the same wrong results
I noted that a nested dw cannot use Slide-up (all or directly)
I was able to have some "presentable" but not desirable results using 2 on the header and 2 on the footer (as the notes (observaciones) are also a variable lenght text, not a nested datawindow, but does not works either and are usually more lines that the nested data)
Unfortunatelly, a lot of customers uses different formats, and the work to adjust all different dws is a huge work.
Is this a bug, a know issued or am I missing something with the new version?
Best Regards
Alfredo
